Information security management software firm Hicomply has opened its first North American base in Denver, Colorado.
The move comes as the Newcastle-based company continues its global expansion and deepens its support for international clients and partners.
The business has also made the decision in response to surging demand for compliance software in the US and Canada.
It will enhance support for the company’s partners in the region, which include A-Lign in the US and Intensity in Canada.
“Denver stood out to us as a base for many reasons,” said Mark Edgeworth, CEO at Hicomply. “The wealth of talent in the region, strong partner demand from the Midwest, and the benefits of operating in the Mountain Time Zone all make it an ideal location to serve customers right across North America.
“We are seeing a significant uplift in demand for our platform in the US and Canada. While SOC 2 remains a key driver, we’re also supporting increasing numbers of North American businesses that need ISO certification to operate internationally.
“Our ability to support multiple standards across multiple geographies is a core reason why Hicomply is winning customers globally.
“This latest move strengthens our international footprint and reflects our commitment to delivering world-class service wherever our customers do business.”
The US expansion will be led by Hicomply’s global VP of partnerships, Simon Noble, alongside global VP of sales, Adam Dixon.
